“6th of February with Yoshi in Tokyo”
What a beautiful, interesting and unforgettable day with Yoshi in Tokyo. From the first moment on, when we met in the Shangri- la hotel I felt that I am in best hands of a friend. These 6 hours in which he showed me, in respecting my handicap in problems with walking due to a backbone operation, such great places and by this unforgettable impressions of this pulsing city. Yoshi is very competitive, very concentrated by explaining to me each place we visited. The best guide. From 1 to 10 = the very best with 10 points. Would I ever come back again to Tokyo, would for sure come back to my friend with his heart warm aura, to this great person, to YOSHI.
